Nigerian music superstar David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has finally reunited with his first daughter, Imade Adeleke, after months of publicized tension with her mother, Sophia Momodu.
The heartwarming reunion comes after a prolonged custody disagreement between the Afrobeat icon and Momodu, which escalated into a legal tussle and captured widespread attention across social media and news platforms.
Davido shared the emotional moment via his Instagram story, posting a picture of himself holding Imade in a warm embrace. Captioning the image, the Timeless crooner described the moment succinctly but powerfully: “The best day of my life.”

In follow-up Instagram story posts, Imade was seen spending quality time with members of her paternal family. One clip showed her at her grandfather’s residence, while another snapshot captured her smiling joyfully as she sat on the lap of her granduncle, Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke, during a family gathering.
The reunion marks a significant moment in what has been a strained co-parenting relationship. Earlier in the year, private communications involving Sophia Momodu and Davido’s father surfaced online, hinting at the depth of the familial discord.
Since the news broke, social media has been awash with supportive messages from fans and fellow celebrities, many of whom expressed joy over the long-awaited reconciliation between the award-winning singer and his daughter.
While the custody battle remains unresolved, this reunion suggests a hopeful turn in the relationship between Davido and Imade, sparking renewed calls for peaceful co-parenting among Nigerian celebrity families.
